Bangladesh’s vicious cycle of political retribution stops with Jamaat-e-Islami, said its Ameer Shafiqur Rahman.
The ruling party should stop organising parallel programmes and fuelling confrontation.

A war crimes tribunal has issued death warrants for BNP leader Salauddin Quader Chowdhury and Jamaat-e-Islami leader Ali Ahsan Mohammad Mojaheed. The warrants will be soon sent to authorities concerned and initiate the process of execution.
